That's because most is intuitive :D
No seriously, I see your point, could you open a bug report on bugs.kde.org?
One for the searching (I know we had that in KDE 3) ...

... and one for that. The problem is to decide what the relevant page is I 
guess (not beeing a kde developer). I guess the Systemsettingsframework is 
treated as one application, regardless of the opened module and so it always 
opens the documentation for systemsettings. Not sure if this is a real bug, 
but it's definitvely worth an enhancement.

It opend khelpcenter for me (with the systemsettings settings page ...), if 
that was your point? Or is it the lack of documentation for the specific module 
you're talking about?

Kind Regards,
